Siheyuan: Starting from Retirement

After eating, Yu Li said, "The food is fine. My father-in-law prepared a lot. If we save it, the family will hardly starve. But the meat is only a few ounces per person per year, which is enough for a meal during the New Year."

After hearing this, Long Zhan sighed and said, "The time has not come yet. After a while, the family may not be able to collect a pound of meat in a year."

"Ah! That's it. I don't care. Anyway, I'll rely on you in the future."

"Haha, you girl, how can I let you down?"

"Hehe, I knew you were the best."

After taking a sip of wine, he asked, "How is your work now?"

"It's pretty good. I'm in the office every day. The work is pretty leisurely."

"It's good once you get used to it."

Yu Li sat for a while and left.

After Long Zhan finished drinking, he packed up and went back to sleep.

As the New Year approaches.

Many people started to rush to the market to buy items.

There was a long queue in front of each meat stall.

If you go too late, you can't buy meat even if you have a ticket.

Wen Li used the method taught by Long Zhan to control Tong Zhi several times recently.

Seeing Tong Zhi cooking and working honestly when he got home, she was secretly proud.

"Tong Zhi, everyone is lining up to buy meat, so let's buy some too, or we won't be able to buy it until the New Year."

"Okay, I'll go early tomorrow, but the meat coupons at home only add up to one pound, and we don't know when the next meat coupon will be issued. How much should we buy?"

Wen Li thought for a while, "Buy all of them and save them for the New Year, and then go to the market to see if we can buy a chicken and fish."

Tong Zhi put the dishes on the table, wiped his hands, and said with a smile: "Wife, if we spend like this, our money won't be able to cover our expenses again."

"How could that be? You haven't done anything recently?"

"Oh, you eat big white steamed buns, and the flour is all bought, otherwise the supply wouldn't be enough."

Wen Li said a little embarrassedly: "I'm not used to eating steamed bread."

"Haha, it's okay, let's calculate it again, we have to cover our expenses anyway, no more talking, let's eat first."

"Okay."

Long Zhan was turning around the street in a wheelchair.

People were in a hurry looking for places to buy things.

When they were almost at the tavern, they saw a woman with two children squatting on the roadside.

Long Zhan looked at her and knew who she was.

He went over in a wheelchair and asked, "Girl, are you looking for someone?"

Xu Huizhi looked at this kind old man and felt friendly.

"Grandpa, I'm waiting for someone."

Long Zhan nodded and looked at the two children kindly, "Don't let the children get frozen in this cold weather. Who are you waiting for? Tell me, I'll help you find it."

"I, no need, I'll wait a little longer."

Xu Huizhi was too embarrassed to say that.

She took out three steaming big buns from her bag.

"Okay, then I'll leave. Take this, don't let the children starve."

Xu Huizhi looked at Long Zhan in surprise.

She didn't expect there would be such a good person.

"Thank you, Grandpa, thank you, Grandpa!" Then she said to the children, "Chunfen, Lixia, thank Grandpa."

"Thank you, Grandpa!"

"Thank you, Grandpa!"

Long Zhan smiled kindly, "They are all good children. That's enough, the old man is leaving."

Xu Huizhi watched Long Zhan leave, and was secretly grateful, knowing that she had met a kind person.

Then she gave the steamed buns to the two children, and the three of them leaned together to eat the hot steamed buns, feeling much warmer in their hearts.

Her feelings for Long Zhan continued to rise.

[Xu Huizhi, favorability 60. ]

This was the moment in the plot when He Yongqiang had no money to be hospitalized, and Xu Huizhi took the children to ask Cai Quanwu for help.

She knew that she was sorry for her cousin Xu Huizhen, so she could only ask her brother-in-law Cai Quanwu for help.

Long Zhan saw Cai Quanwu coming back with two children from a distance.

"Why are you here, Mr. Long?"

"Hehe, I'm just strolling around. This is Jingli and Jingping."

"Yes, you still remember them."

"Call Grandpa Long."

The two little girls also shouted obediently: "Hello, Grandpa Long."

"Okay, you are so good, Grandpa will give you candy."

He grabbed two handfuls of milk candy and put them in their pockets.

The little girls were so happy.

"Thank you, Grandpa Long!"

"Thank you, Grandpa Long!"

"Haha, you are so sweet."

Xu Jingli suddenly asked: "Grandpa Long, are you the martial arts master that Hou Kui mentioned?"

Cai Quanwu was also stunned, not knowing what he meant.

Long Zhan laughed "Haha~".

He said to Cai Quanwu: "This kid, he promised me not to tell anyone at the beginning, but when he came to Jingli, he sold it immediately."

Cai Quanwu also laughed.

"Hou Kui always plays with Jingli."

Long Zhan said to Xu Jingli: "Don't listen to that boy, he must be lying to you. Next time you see him, you will teach him a lesson for Grandpa, okay?"

Xu Jingli frowned and said angrily: "Huh, this tea, I will definitely teach him a lesson for Grandpa Long when I see him."

"Haha~"

Long Zhan also found it interesting.

Then he waved to Cai Quanwu and said: "Okay, you go back. When you have time, ask your parents to take you to Grandpa's house. I have a lot of snacks there."

After that, he left with a smile.

Wandering on the street all the way, I didn't pack food this time, there was enough in the space.

The most important thing is that it would be too conspicuous to pack now.

In a blink of an eye, I arrived at the silk shop.

Chen Xueru was looking at the fabrics. Seeing Long Zhan coming, she also welcomed him in.

"Mr. Long, please come in."

"Okay, I hope I won't interrupt your business."

"No bother."

Then he said, "Mr. Liu, just do as I say."

"Okay, boss."

The two entered the office.

Chen Xueru poured tea and said, "Mr. Long, how long will the shortage of supplies last?"

"It will take years."

"It's okay now, but if it goes on like this, there will definitely not be enough food."

Then he said, "I'm used to eating good food, how can I adapt to it when it suddenly changes? I heard that it can still be bought on the black market. If not, I'll ask someone to buy it there."

Long Zhan drank a sip of tea, nodded and said, "Don't go by yourself, arrange for someone else to go, it's not safe because there are all kinds of people there."

"Okay, I remember."

" If you really run into trouble, tell me and I'll find a way for you."

"Okay, I feel relieved when you say that."

"By the way, where's Pian'er? Did you chase him away?"

Chen Xueru lifted her hair and said dissatisfiedly, "I feel uncomfortable when I see him. It's better to get rid of him in the end. Out of sight, out of mind."

Long Zhan smiled helplessly, "You, can't you leave someone a meal?"

"I don't care about him."

Long Zhan also smiled at Chen Xueru's character. It can't be changed.

Sat for a while.

Stand up and say, "Okay, I won't sit down either. I just want to tell you. You should be busy."

When Chen Xueru saw that he was about to leave, she stepped forward and took his arm, saying dissatisfiedly, "You can leave, but finish the business with me first."
